Ordinary call: orientations and renunciation
The evaluation of the course will be based on the following aspects:1. Attendance and participation in class 50% of the final grade. 80% class attendance is required.
2. Scientific report 50% of the final grade.
This method of assessment could be changed if the guidelines of the health authorities so provide. The appropriate modifications would be announced in due course, with the necessary strategies and tools to guarantee the right of the student to be evaluated with equity and fairness.
